Having physical buttons isn't for an older demographic, it's just plain better and safer to having than a giant touch screen. Not everything needs to be a damn touch screen.

I agree, the only thing that bothers me about the Forester is that the CVT cost $8000 to have it replaced. Most vehicles like the Buick Enclave, cost $4300 to have a remanufactured put in. That's the scary gripe I have with the Forester. Bring the replacement cost down. If the car is worth $10k Private Party when you need a new CVT, does it really make sense to sink $8k into it?....

If the base model forester wasn't so stripped down, it might have taken the cake, but as for me, I am eyeing the 2021 sport trim crosstrek. The premium trim forester is a very similar value proposition, but I think the crosstrek's size and looks edge it out for me despite the lower internal space.

I'd buy one if they still offered the 6-speed manual. Won't own anything with a CVT transmission. Manuals are cheaper to work on. Cheaper to replace, which hardly ever happens and you control the RPM and power. You can't beat a Roo with a manual in the snow and ice with real snow tires. Bring back the 6-speed and I'll buy one right now. Want one for a daily drive in Montana. Guess, I'll keep my current 2018 Forester. Last year of the Manual 6-speed. At lease let us special order them.

All of those 5 reasons sound good, but there are 2 reasons for me why i wouldn't buy it. 1. It's way underpowered, it needs easy 20+ hp. 182 hp just doesn't cut it. It doesn't even need to have a turbo engine, 4 cylinder or V6, just more power. 2. It needs ventilated seats. They need to get on with the program, every other small crossover in the same segment has more power and ventilated seats, at least you get one trim level with those options. 19" wheels wouldn't hurt either, forester has a big body, those 18" wheels look just too small.

Stay away from souped up turbo engines from the allure of more HP, Forester is indeed a good value but not for the all wheel drive Subaru talks so much about, Front wheel drive with t/c is more than enough because in snow the all wheel drive system won't make the car more secure or safer. Comfortable, spacious, good visibility out front, sides and back. Easily learned controls and nothing digital to be accessed from a humongous touch screen like in the Outback. Look at Premium, Sport and think hard about getting the Limited as the bells and whistles may not be worth paying more. Forester is reliable and dependable, as well as reasonably economical on gas, I own a 2018 Premium for which I had to pay extra for the "driver assist features", quite a bit extra, At least these technologies are useful, but not all of them, I recently test drove a '21 Forester and it felt larger and wider than mine. The new one is some 2 " taller and 1" wider. I took it for an extended test drive in a rainy day and it handled well. Hopefully my experience helps.

Try not to let it sit parked for several days at a time. Good luck-:)

Honestly for $30k there's no way I would buy any Subie over a Mazda CX-5. I can get an AWD Touring CX-5 with the special value package and still come in under $31k including destination. Much nicer interior and exterior styling (subjective I'll admit) and better quality. Mazda is rated #1 overall for quality by Consumer Reports for 2020, yes even over Toyota and Lexus. And if I have about $5k more to spend I can move up to a Grand Touring with an even plusher interior.

Please…”VALUE” includes price implicitly. Value stands on it’s own..it is a good value or not but “for the money” is redundant.

If a role player on an NBA team brings a lot of value to his team with a contract that's very financially friendly, you'd say he provides a lot of value for what the team is paying him. The same can be applied when talking about cars as well.

The tailgate maximum opening height is a great reason to buy something else! The max height is pathetic. The seats are also very narrow if you have a fat arse.

Then cross the Forester off your list. This year none of them are offered with a manual. Subaru does offer the CVT with simulated 6- or 8-speed paddle shifters, but that's as close as you can get. I miss my 2018 6-speed manual.

Poor transmissions, watch tfl , won't even spin a tire. Poor engines. I had one, burned more oil, than a Honda with 300000, Subaru was new. I like them but not ready to trust them. If Scotty says ok I might still buy one.

X-mode is designed to cut out at 17 mph and the CVT ruins this brand for reliability and off road conditions. If they still made one like our 2005 or 2011, with a real transmission, we would buy another.

Needs a darker dimmable rear view mirror. Auto door lock button is aggravating because it's not illuminated in the dark. Needs an LED on the overhead lights so you can easily figure out which one you left on manually . Serious lack of accessories available like a decent size booger bar brush guard so you can mount off-road lights. Seat belt alarm aggravating cuz it never shuts up. Don't like the feminist door locks you should be able to override that. Would like to have seen a tighter piston ring to cylinder wall relationship oil dirties too quickly when compared with such as Toyota. Inside door grip should be redesigned to make coins easily to get out of or there should be a coin tray. Lack of enough cup holders. Do like the companies Pro pet advertising. Would prefer switchable four-wheel drive option. not crazy about all wheel drive with such a poor tolerance for different tire wear diameter. Local dealer trying to hustle me for a brake fluid flush at the 20,000 mile and injector cleaning. Seems absurd at 20,000 miles. Perhaps Subaru needs to watch its dealer behavior more closely. That's all for now.

Subaru owners aren't into styling . Too sophisticated for that. Styles come and go. Remember how stylish Ford Taurus was. Subarus are today what Volvo and Volkswagen were in the 60's.
